    Fingerprint Evidence
  • Kevin’s fingerprint was discovered on a bin liner that was recovered from the boot of a car the police suggest was used in the murder.

  • The bin liner was discovered inside a length of plumbing pipe that was claimed to have been used to conceal the alleged murder weapon. Although this evidence does not mean Kevin was responsible for the shooting he did give a perfectly innocent explanation as to how his fingerprint may have been deposited on the bin liner.

  • Kevin had borrowed the car over the period 7th – 10th October 1994 from Kevin’s partner’s uncle. This is supported by police reports concerning Operation Cactus that state Kevin’s partner’s uncle had possession of the car for a short period whilst carrying out repair work and from a witness statement from the uncle that confirms he loaned the car to Kevin.
